It really is a shame that there have not been sets done for the Pirates films. The autos for a Pirates set would be outstanding...as would the costumes and props. They are missing the boat there. I wonder if any card companies have faced resistance from the studio or the stars on such a set and that is the underlying reason we have not seen any sets for Pirates.
Really a shame, either way.
Back when Pirates 1 was in theaters, I asked Alan with Inkworks if he'd given the property any consideration.
Apparently, Inkworks was approached to do a set. However, the studio would not guarantee any of the main 3 would sign and were not able to produce screen-worn costumes for Pieceworks cards. These two items were apparently deal breakers, since with modern sets you need main signers and Inkworks does not do "material used to create".
I've also heard that Disney is very proud of the license, and without the assistance of the studio to get autos and costumes it's probably cost prohibitive to produce a set with just base cards and some low level chase.
